Dock Local - Dallas

The food at this restaurant is always delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive. This place is a wonderful discovery.

I feel like OpenTable is starting to resemble Yelp. I came across Dock Local in an email that claimed it was a wonderful spot for brunch. However, I highly doubt that it is suitable for brunch. The ambiance is lacking and the food is quite disappointing. We ordered a bowl, a cup of bisque, and shrimp tacos. The shrimp was undercooked and the sauce on the tacos was overpowering. Not only did the food lack in presentation, but the bowl mainly consisted of cavatappi pasta. The lobster in the bisque was too tough to eat. The only decent part of the meal was the chips, which were a bit oily but crunchy. Overall, it was a disappointing dining experience, leaving me hesitant to trust OpenTable's recommendations for restaurants.

The restaurant offers a clean, bright, and friendly casual environment with exceptional seafood. Their lobster rolls, especially the lobster roll, are highly recommended. Dock Local stands out for offering multiple styles of rolls consistently. The lobster rolls surpass those at seafood market/restaurants and upscale establishments in town. Other menu items like lobster grilled cheese, lobster bisque, homemade chips, and crispy shoestrings are also delicious. Customers will not be disappointed with any choice and will save money compared to similar dining options. Additionally, there is currently a 10% off Groupon deal available. Don't miss out on this great dining experience!

I love the freshness of the food. The margaritas were potent and flavorful. The lobster bites were meaty and absolutely incredible! I loved it so much I visited twice in days! I felt like the cost was a tad bit high but the service is so impeccable, it was well worth it!

Date night for my husband and I. We decided to go with Dock Local over Yo Lobster at the last minute. Food and service was much better. Laid back, relaxed and less stuffy. The fish tacos were yummy. The lobster roll was delicious. We’ll definitely add this to our list.
